>I’ve had this Bond movie, you know, this is probably part of the thing… I had this one I wanted to do called Mission Deferred and my idea is that this is James Bond… this was a few years ago, the Cold War is over and there’s no gig. And… I had this idea… he goes in to see M and M is on the phone, and he’s walking around M’s office, you know, and finally says [uses hand gestures to say that he'll come back when M is off the phone]. And you know… the gadgetry is like he has a great coffee machine, and that maybe he gets into a bar fight or something because he has a license to kill but there’s [nothing to do]. And so, you know, I never got the call.
Oh, I see, so quirky! But honestly, I've seen Rushmore, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Moonrise Kingdom and I just can't see why he's one of the most celebrated """auteurs""" working today.
